In 2012, at the international Gymnix, Rousseau won silver in the All-around and on the parallel bars and placed 4th in the floor exercise and the balance beam. That same year, at the Canadian Championships, she placed 4th in the All-around event. Two years later, at the international Gymnix, Rousseau again won silver in the team All-around, placed 4th on the parallel bars, and 5th in the All-around individual. In 2015, Rousseau competed in her first senior competition at Élite Canada and placed 3rd in the All-around and on the parallel bars, and 5th on the floor exercise.
